Our reading of Clicksend, from the data

Clicksend is a communication MCP server from clicksend, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

Maintenance is maintained: the last public signal was 2 months ago (2026-08-23). For comparison, 71% of communication servers are active or maintained.

With 3 GitHub stars it ranks #197 of 858 communication servers we index.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio and needs one secret (CLICKSEND_API_KEY); use a scoped, least-privilege key.
